The fire main and lightning rod of a building are not good grounding options. The ground wire of the
access controller should be connected to the grounding system in the equipment room.
When a grounding strip is unavailable
1) If earth is available nearby and allows a grounding body to be buried
Hammer an angle steel or steel pipe longer than 0.5 m (1.64 ft) into the earth. In this case, weld the
yellow-green PGND wire of the access controller onto the angle steel or steel pipe, and treat the joint for
corrosion protection.
